Alan Soutar is through to the third round of the PDC World Darts Championship and will return after Christmas after a blockbuster 160 checkout to see off Daryl Gurney.
Soutar got abuse from some sections of the crowd again singing Scotland Get Battered and he spoke about aiming to counter act that.
"Let them boo, you know what it doesn't affect my game. They've paid for a ticket so they can do what they want at the darts. I stopped looking at the crowd because I was getting a lot of abuse from the back of seats.
"I actually said this morning to my manager Paul, I'm not going to take on the crowd anymore but I can't help getting involved with it. I hit a 180 in the first leg and I sort of (gave it the big one), I shouldn't have done it but I got carried away."
He will also be looking at a potential World Cup of Darts spot but admits that Gary Anderson will currently make the decision.
"I've been thinking about it for two years but it's not my decision. Gary is still number two. He is a lot higher than me so it just depends. I didn't play in it this year as quite rightly Hendo got to go and defend his title but if I could play in Scotland in the PDC to back up what I did in the WDF, that would be a massive moment for me."
